* While this part of the Chorus is sung, three young ladies, bearing garland, sceptre and crown, advance one after the other,
and present them to the queen. After this they lead her to the throne, and remain at her side. This must be so arranged that
all is finished before the Chorus sings " HajJ, hail, hail," at which they all kneel.

As the queen sings the last four notes, she retires accompanied by her maids of honor. The Chorus follows, singing the latter
part behind the scenes. If the Music of the Kitornell is too short, it may be repeated, as marked, until all art off the stage.

The Twin Sisters. 29

SCENE II. — Corinna, Mary, and Anna, return.

Mary. — Now, tell me, Corinna, what in the world has taken possession of Mab Stanley ? — Did you ever see a Queen,
so woe begone, in all your life ? — In former years she was as merry as a cricket, as fleet as a deer, and as blooming as the
opening rose that greets the rising sun with its dew-bathed smile ; — and now, she is drooping like a withered lily, — regaling
her friends with melancholy songs, and walking as if a weight, besides oppressing her heart, were attached to her feet.

Corinna. — No wonder, Mary, that you are astonished at the change in Mab Stanley. — You have been away from us so
long ! — But you surely must remember little Florence, Mab's twin sister. Alike in looks and disposition, they seemed to be
born for each other, and for the admiration of all the world beside ; — so all absorbent was their love. Well, some years
ago —

Anna. — Now, jou are not going to monopolize the telling of this story, — so, with your leave, I'll continue. — Three
years ago we had our usual May-celebration, and as a matter of course, Mab and Florence were of the party. Our enter-
tainment was to conclude with a dance on the green, by torch-light, and when we arrived at the appointed place, we found
it occupied by a Gipsey encampment. We were all greatly interested bjr the strange habits and appearance of these roving
people ; — so much so, that but tew joined in the dance, while the balance passed their time under the tents of the swarthy
guests, having their fortunes told, and witnessing all kinds of lively tricks, played for our benefit.

Corinna. — But the worst trick was discovered when we reached home. No one had taken notice of little Florence,
and the first we knew after retiring, was, that a loud knocking at our window shutters frightened us nearly to death. My
father enquired the reason of this disturbance, and was in turn enquired of, whether he had seen anything of Florence, —
her parents having thought it possible, that she might have gone home with some of the other girls, as she had not returned
"to her own home.

Mary. — You startle me with your tale, and can it be possible that her absence should not have been discovered, until
late at night ; or did they not think at once of the Gipsies ? —

Anna. — It is very easy for you to anticipate what is coming ; but I think it was quite excusable, in Mab's parents, not to
dunk of the Gipsies, until it was too late.

Mary. — What do you mean ?

Anna. — I mean that after they had enquired at almost every house for Florence, they first thought of the Gipsies. By this
time it was midnight, and when they came to the encampment, not a trace of tents, wagons, Florence or Gipsies could be found.

Corinna. — And to make matters worse, a terrible storm set in, which prevented them making those diligent and speedy
searches that could have been instituted under other circumstances.

Mary. — And Florence, you think, was carried off by the Gipsies ?

Corinna. — There is no doubt of it. — And by this time she has probably learned dancing on a rope, balancing glasses
in hoops, fortune telling, and other similar accomplishments.

30

The Twin Sisters.

Anna. — If she ever does come back again, I'll make her tell my fortune !
Corinna. — Shame on you, to jest on such a serious matter!

Mary. — Oh, look there ! — a perfect cavalcade of wagons and horses. Your story has so frightened me that I see a
roving Gipsey in every traveller, and a band of kidnappers in every wagon with a cover. — Come, let us join the crowd.

Exeunt Mary, Corinna, and Anna.

1st Gipsey. — Lora, do you know that this is not the iirst time we have struck our camp on this spot i
2d Gipsey. — I well remember thrice twelve moons ago, when our band received an additional member in the form of
our Esmeralda.

1st Gipsey. — And a good card she has proved to us in spite of her unwillingness to submit to our laws. Her per-
formances always bring a perfect shower of silver coins, when even Preciosa cannot cut the purse-strings of the youngsters.

The Twin Sisters.

2d Gipsey. — But have you no fear that she •will be discovered by her friends, in this, her native place ?

1st Gipsey. — I am not afraid. The juice with which I stained her hands and face, makes her look so complete a Zin-
gara, that none suspect her; and she is too afraid of the whip ever to breathe a word about her home to any one. More-
over, I have taken the precaution to send her on to our next encampment, by a foot-path unknown to all but us, and in
company of one with whom she cannot trifle. But it is best for us to be on our guard. Therefore another song, and then
we must be going. Come, Preciosa, sing us your prettiest romance, and we will join in the chorus.

There is something so strange in that song that it haunts me wherever I go — and at the same time it affords me a conso-
lation that does not fail me in my hardest trials. But those trials, 1 trust, will soon be over. It was Providence who in-
duced my tyrants to take me past this village, on an almost unknown patb. And it was Providence that led me, in my
youthful rambles, to those sacred nooks and corners, where it was comparatively easy for me to give my 6vvarthy jailor the
slip. Ah ! my heart is almost bursting with joy ! What will father and mother say, when the little Gipscy knocks at their
door, asking for alms, which, if they but knew — they would bo but too glad to squander. But here come some old friends ;
I wonder whether they will recognise me in this disguise? Now I must test their friendship a little, and assume a charac-
ter, but little in keeping with their own.
